Dancefloor Devils

Hiphop / Metal hybrid wannabe
Instrumental version

Drum patterns from live samples, looped
All instruments "fully organic" :-P 
DJ sounds from a Yamaha keyboard

The idea for this song came when a "hip hop artist" approached me with the idea "let's write a song". He didn't really want it, only said it because he felt he needed to say something - as it later turned out, when he disappeared and didn't show up to do his bit. I did my part however, the verses were meant for rapping, the choruses for melodic rip-your-head-off type of singing. For so many years the guy didn't turn up to do his bit, so now this song goes live without him. This is just a voiceless / instrumental version.

Been stacked on my hard drive since 2011

Voiceless / Instrumental metal song

Drum patterns from live samples, carefully selected and looped
All other instruments "fully organic"*

This one has been stacked on my hard drive since 2011


* Meaning of the term "fully organic":
I have played and recorded the instruments myself 
Have used a B.C. Rich Warlock Metal Master guitar through a DigiTech RP70 pedal, and a Yamaha RBX765A bass through a DigiTech BP50 pedal.

Moshpit Culprits

Ten songs:

1 Speed snail
2 Interstellar blues
3 Holy trinity
4 Dusk
5 The current
6 Doom
7 Auroran Spacer paradise
8 Duel in space
9 The invaders' vessel
10 Spacedive

Judit Antal plays the keyboards in 3 songs (Speed snail, Interstellar blues, Auroran Spacer paradise)
All songs written and all instruments played by AtonHotep (Dave Antal)
Sound engineer: AtonHotep (Dave Antal)
A few of the songs represent an experiment with the bass guitar being used as a lead guitar and panned at 100% to the sides, while in other songs the normal mixing style is maintained. :)



(Song inspired by Isaac Asimov's Pirate of the Asteroids {Chapter "Duel in deed"})


"Ready for a fair fight? C'mon, you dirty cobber!"

So here we are, face to face
Floating near an asteroid out in space
Whichever of us proves to be faster
Grabbing the blaster out of its holster
Will blast the other to a deadly orbit
Corpse in an ice-cube helplessly circling, floating
Ending up maybe hitting the sun
Some million years from now on....

Aim and blast
Close contact
Remain intact

Action and counter-action
Like a rocket-blast in the other direction
A straight line streaking out, connecting
Some living tissue with some floating debris

Aim and blast
Close contact
Remain intact
Flash of light
Deadly start
Straight line that's streaking out

"Master should put the pushgun away, not cause injury to human beings!"

09 the invaders vessel

(Astyanax was the son of Hector according to Greek mythology. {see here: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Astyanax})


Here comes the crew
Of heroes to you
To bring you relief
From all grief
Here comes the crew
Of angels to you
To bring you relief
From all grief

It's been the bravest feat
That's ever come to pass
The gravest of dangers has been eliminated once and for all!

Saw how their bodies have fallen?
On the ground?
Beheaded their protection has gone leaving them vulnerable

You robbed them
Burnt their land
There was nowhere to go
They all were
Defenceless
And vulnerable

¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤
Now all the world can respire
With the bad guys gone!
Now all the world can admire
Your strength and wisdom!
¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤

Here comes the troop
Of justice to you
To bring you relief
From your grief
Here comes the troop
Of justice to you
To bring you relief
And DEMOCRACY!


It's been the bravest deed
With glorious motives
You had promised you'd help your royal friend
To get their stray woman back regardless of her will

The small body has fallen
From the top of the wall
You heroes did not care 
For their despair
But were BRAVE enough to do it!

You killed them 
Men and women
Old and the children, too
They all were
Defenceless
And vulnerable!

¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤
Now all the world can respire
With the bad guys gone!
Now all the world can admire
Your strength and wisdom!
¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤¤

Here come the fools
To murder you
To bring you grief
And no relief

It's been the craziest nightmare
Of all times
But the worst was how those criminals became famous heroes
And injustice: morals....

Astyanax

Deep in my heart it's crystal clear
Wounded my soul is with the fear
It's so hard to figure it out what I could do - not to lose you
But to have my feelings known and embrace you........

Dilemma

An instrumental piece for you to enjoy... Still hot from the oven. :)

Counterbalancing

The song structure is unique in some ways, have used a frame structure and more layers and hidden meanings. The title itself would not give in easily to most of the listeners, but here on Soundcloud I have given you a clue. (Hidden as it is, but if one wants to find it, they can.)
Lyrically it consists of 3 main vocals parts after an instrumental intro, two of which are in English to frame in a special Hungarian one, in which every vowel is an e.

See the world as it is – indeed 
Hear its voice as it sounds – as it speaks
Civilizations come and go indeed
Morals adjusted and re-adjusted to the ego every day
What remains of all of this?
What will remain of all of this?

I can hear your heartbeat my precious home globe
I am your child
I am back home


Kegyetlen gyermeked 
Elfeledett s nem szeretett
Tested sebekkel lett tele
Lelked megreszketett bele 
Szemedben egy tenger keletkezett
Megkeseredett, nedve eleredt
Megsebzett lelked megtelt
Vele eltemettetett 

(Your cruel child
Has forgotten about you and didn't love you
Your body became covered in wounds
Your soul was shivering from it
In your eyes a sea has come forth into existence
Its liquids became bitter, and have flooded out
Your wounded soul filled up with it
And got buried beneath it.)


Will we ever foresee the end before it comes?
Will we ever foreknow the truth before it appears?

Is our role that of the vultures here on Earth?
Where are we bound? Where are we bound?

Will we ever hear your voice as you speak?
Will we ever understand what you mean?
Will we humans ever turn our souls to care?
Or is it our choice and destiny to disappear?

Is our role that of the vultures here on Earth?
Where are we bound? Where are we bound?

See the world as it is – in real
Hear your voice as it sounds – as you speak
I come and go, come and go along the way
I'm adjusted and re-adjusted every single day
We'll remain in all this

Moons get loose

This is an experimental music project of mine, mostly originals*, written, played and recorded by myself. Some of the songs later appear in sets of my band Terran Spacers. Enjoy! :)
